OMG!



Last 2 set ups every shot ran deep. What a waste of 6 torpedoes.

Yea, can be quite frustrating. Imagine having that really happen. Looks like my intent to convey that frustration is working.

I'm guessing a few of the crews came home with broken dishes and hands because of it.

I hear you brother...
2 misses, 2 duds, 2 under.....
Felt like I was on the wrong side of history...


On the other hand, once fired 6 torps against a huge troop transport, but due to miscalculation and the ship accelerating, only 2 hit the stern, causing it to stop, the other four, passed her and found a sub chaser on the other side. All four hit the chaser (altough the ship was sinking with the first one).
That felt like a movie climax!!

Y'all do... (I hope & trust) realize, that the U.S. submarine fleet, did suffer for the longest time (too d**n bloody long, to be quite frank about it, due to a bunch of morons that were more worried about 'their' precious reputation, power, prestige & finally... pay chit, to acknowledge 'their' screw up, where it pertained to the torps available when the war began, that had NOT actually been tested out in the wild... meaning had extensive field testing, BEFORE they were slapped with a label of... ''reliability''.) with dud torps... that very badly malfunctioned... & even with the number of newer torp, to replace the older ones... the older, which were a bit more on the reliable side, than their newer 'cousins', as it were.


As is, is no telling just how many of those... 'Lost 52', (now cut down, to knowing where some of those are resting... thanks to those involved with the Lost 52 project...) were sunk, due to torps that malfunctioned.



That time, is well modeled in game thanks to modders... (too numerous, to name all here... but, My thanks to them just the same... ) all because Ubi... was too $$$ sign struck, with shoving the game out the pipe & in a bum rush, to feed their greed... to properly do the job right. This, includes a whole lot of things that, are on that list of things that... Ubi, screwed the pooch on.

Terminated patrol early. Went home with 3 Mk 14s still in tubes.

89% failure rate. 1 hit out of 9 shots. Every one of them ran deep.

Beginning to feel like those sub commanders.

That would have been a good replay to save.

Paid the sub tender at Adak a visit. I thought it would refuel me but it doesn't.

I KNOW!! I totally forgot about that!
That scene was the reason with I play with External Camera...
I shot the 6 fish, and went outside, followed the wakes.
Half way through, my heart sank as I could tell that most of them missed.
But as I stopped the camera to watch the only two hits, the big (not so lumbering) transport moving away from the scene, revealed the escort behind, probably two, three hundred yards away!
I could see the wakes heading in the right direction, the escort tried as much as he could to avoid, but even the last of the four fish hit her with a profile of about 45 degrees!
It was epic.
